Field-based programs that provide medical care to people experiencing homelessness can assist these patients in significantly improving their blood pressure, new UCLA research finds. The researchers were able to increase the number of these patients who gained control of their bl

A new study presents an artificial intelligence system that scans images of the retina to detect signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, gout, osteoporosis and thyroid disease in seconds. The program—called Reti-Pioneer—is a step toward being able to diagnose ma

An artificial intelligence model capable of reading and interpreting animal behavior like language has been developed by researchers at KAIST. The team created an AI model that learns behavioral data in a manner similar to natural language and was able to independently identify s

Male runners may be twice as likely as female runners to suddenly slow down—known as "hitting the wall"—during a marathon, according to a study published in Scientific Reports. The authors suggest that men may be able to reduce this risk by starting races more slowly and speeding

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center were able to eradicate measurable residual disease (MRD) in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients, a critical step in improving long-term survival outcomes, by treating them with the antibody-drug conju

A new cancer drug may be able to inhibit both tumor growth and the spread of aggressive prostate cancer. This is shown in a study conducted by researchers at Umeå University together with international collaborators, published in the journal Signal Transduction and Targeted Thera

Chronic and viral infections can literally exhaust certain key cells in the immune system from a constant barrage of attacks. But a new pair of papers by scientists at the Hackensack Meridian Center for Discovery and Innovation (CDI) points to a way to understand how this exhaust

More children younger than 5 should be able to be vaccinated in pharmacies from January 2027 under a range of measures designed to boost vaccine coverage announced in this year's federal budget.

More than 50 million Americans live with chronic pain; among them, approximately 1 in 10 take prescription opioids regularly. A new large-scale study led by Stanford Medicine suggests that—with the right approach—many people may be able to reduce their opioid use long term withou

Scientists have developed a new method for accurately predicting gene changes that cause lung cancer, without the need for slower, more expensive lab techniques. The technology was able to identify specific genetic changes with high accuracy, offering a potentially faster, more e

The COVID pandemic feels like a long time ago. Now, we have widespread immunity from vaccination and natural infection. And getting COVID is less risky than it was five years ago.

Nearly nine in 10 pregnant participants in a study led by biomedical engineers at UBC did not achieve recommended seat belt placement, even after instruction and hands-on guidance. Among 333 participants, only 11.4% were able to place the seat belt as recommended, suggesting curr
